eBay My World: fcssmith( 2693)

Selling on Ebay is something I really enjoy, It is important to me that my buyers are happy with their purchases. Everything I sell is not perfect but I try to describe acurately so there are no surprises. I sell on ebay because I love what I sell.

My favorite items to sell are dolls, early antique and vintage doll clothing. Sometimes I find items that are just to fun to turn down.

I buy most of my items at auctions, Usually antique doll and accessories. I don't buy from Ebay for resale

I collect everything, My little cottage is bursting at the seams. I have my own doll collection, Crazy over early oil lamps and head vases. Silhouettes will also catch my eye.

My husband and I snowshoe in the winter, boat in the summer.

I love the old novels. Wuthering Heights, A Tree Grows in Brooklyn, The new novels don't really do much for me.

Of Course, It must be my age, Gone With the Wind and Imitation of Life with Lana Turner.

I have no real business background, This has been a wonderful hobby for me. It is always growing so now I must start looking at it as more than a hobby.I have been selling on Ebay for the last 7 years, I also have a shop on Ruby Lane. My Ruby Lane shop is Joys of yesterday.

I accept most payment methods from US buyers. I accept PayPal from International.

Shipping is quite important to me. I package my items well and try to make the packaging attractive, I think it is really nice to receive something of beauty. I know that the shipping is expensive, especially shipping bisque dolls priority mail, but I can't fix that. It is the postal cost. I will but I do not like to ship antique doll clothing in an envelope. I recently lost a lovely antique dress in the post office machine because the envelope was to thick to go through. I normally offer more than one shipping option. Please check your invoice. I require priority international insured mail when shipping overseas. This provides tracking and is the only method of tracking available unless your choose a more expensive Global Express mail.

I do take returns if I have describe the item poorly. I require that you notify me within 3 days of receiving the item and return within 7 days. I do not refund shipping.
